Government created the problem building levees shooting all of the sediment out into the Gulf. Now hurricanes and erosion are free to bring the coast closer to New Orleans and Houma every day.
Houma has the most to lose if Terrebonne Parish stops this! Hell, it would be cheaper to subsidize the oyster farmers if any damage does occur.

That's 100% within the scope of the project. CPRA also has fund put aside to raise homes and construct any additional flood control so that the diversion will not cause homes to flood or affect flood insurance. A FEMA rep came out and said a few months ago that the diversion is unlikely to affect flood insurance prices.

There are already hundreds of millions of dollars set aside in this Project to do just that. Its been accounted for.

How does this minuscule project help Houma?
